Walking into a cesspit, the best evil widow wants to stand up

In addition to inviting villagers from Kaoshan Village, there are also clients from his own business, and of course, Magistrate Zhang of Heyang (formerly Captain Zhang).

On the day when the results were announced, Xu Mingchang knew that his son had passed the imperial examination. Prefect Xu and Mrs. Dong decided to bring the whole family together for the banquet.

They had another purpose for this trip. In addition to attending the banquet as the host of the scholar, they also wanted to take the opportunity to arrange the marriage of Xu Hao and Mo Ru.

When Xu Hao passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, Mo Ru was very excited. At that time, he said that he would only marry Xu Hao if he passed the imperial examination and became a scholar. In fact, it was just a statement made out of anger.

The purpose is to see if Xu Hao really wants to marry her?

In fact, this move of hers was really risky. If Xu Hao was not firm enough in his heart and did not like her deeply enough, it was entirely possible that Xu Hao would change his mind after passing the examination to become a scholar.

Because he passed the examination to become a scholar, Xu Hao had more options, not to mention that his father was now the governor of the prefecture. It was only natural for him to marry a daughter of a rich family or a young lady from an official family.

Now, Mo Ru has also realized this. He feels that now is the opportunity to test Xu Hao. If Xu Hao still insists on marrying her, then she will have made the right bet this time.

If she lost, she would just admit defeat, because she had thought it through very clearly in the past few days and had prepared herself mentally.

Mrs. Mo Lian came over and saw that her daughter's face had become rounder and the fetus had obviously moved downward. She knew that her daughter was about to give birth, but she was still a little nervous.

She felt more relieved when she thought that Madam Shen was really thoughtful and considerate, and had invited a midwife back in advance.

Now that Xu Hao has passed the imperial examination and become a scholar, she has become more and more worried, fearing that if the marriage falls through, what will happen to her daughter?

Xu Mingchang and his group set out early and arrived on the morning of the celebration banquet. Not long after, County Magistrate Zhang also arrived, and the County Deputy Magistrate also arrived on the highway.

"Madam Shen, congratulations. I have come here with my wife and daughter to congratulate you." The county magistrate, who looked a little wretched, saluted with both hands.

When this person came to congratulate Shen Ping, Shen Ping was a little surprised. She recognized this person as the county magistrate. She remembered that she did not invite County Magistrate Gao because she was not very familiar with him.

Besides, Gao Xiancheng had a pair of mung bean eyes and a mustache, which gave Shen Ping the feeling that he had a shifty look and was not a good person. He was definitely a traitor.

Shen Ping would avoid this kind of people if possible and kept her at a distance. Moreover, he not only came alone, but also brought his wife and daughter with him.

His wife, Zhao, was heavily made-up, tall, and wore a dark purple glass satin skirt. She had high cheekbones. When she looked at the villagers at the scene, her face was full of undisguised disgust, and she looked a little mean and snobbish.

As for her daughter, she is tall and probably looks like her mother, even more sturdy than Zhao, but she looks like her father, with dark skin, a flat nose, small eyes and thick lips.

The face was visibly covered with makeup cream, which made it look more than one shade whiter than the neck. The skin color was obviously different, which looked very strange. She was wearing a bright red satin dress, which made her look even darker.

Shen Ping really understood the saying that ugly people are often mischievous. I wonder if she is using the natural makeup cream she produced herself.

Her face was paler, but the face and neck were connected, white on top and black on the bottom. The effect was so horrifying that it was unbearable to look at. Shen Ping resisted the urge to ask her to remove her makeup and greeted her enthusiastically.

Although the other party came uninvited, he was still a guest, not to mention that he was the county magistrate. After greeting County Magistrate Zhang, Shen Ping also exchanged a few polite words with the county magistrate.

"County Magistrate Gao, Mrs. Gao, and Miss Gao, please come in~" Shen Ping made a gesture of invitation.

"Congratulations, Miss Yu. You are really a promising young man. You passed the examination for Tongsheng at such a young age. You really have a bright future!

I came here uninvited. I heard from Magistrate Zhang, and since Prefect Xu is back, I also wanted to join in the fun." Facing Shen Ping, Magistrate Gao inexplicably felt a little pressure.

Before Shen Ping was given the title of Lady Yu, she felt superior to her. But now, she seemed a little lacking in confidence. After all, she was conferred the title by the emperor himself.

"Prefect Xu has arrived a long time ago and is in the inner room!" Shen Ping understood immediately. It seemed that County Magistrate Gao came for Xu Mingchang this time. Seeing that he brought his daughter with him, he probably had other intentions.

Knowing that Xu Mingchang had arrived early, the county magistrate exchanged a few more words of greeting and hurriedly walked into the inner room.

Shen Ping's guess was correct. Gaosu came uninvited this time just to target Prefect Xu. He was his immediate superior who was parachuted in previously.

He was somewhat dissatisfied with him. He thought he had taken his position as county magistrate. He had waited so long for him to be transferred from Heyang County, and thought that this time the position of county magistrate would definitely be his.

Unexpectedly, he was disappointed again and Captain Zhang was promoted, which made Gaosu very angry.

A few days ago, he learned that Xu Mingchang's son Xu Hao had passed the imperial examination and was now living in Yu Ru's family in Kaoshan Village. Coincidentally, he also sent someone to invite County Magistrate Zhang to a banquet.

This guy just happened to find out about it, and after he went back and talked about it with his wife, the two of them started to target Xu Hao again.

County Magistrate Gao knew that Xu Hao was not married yet, and he was thinking that his daughter Gao Ju had just turned 16, so he was looking for a good family for her.

Xu Hao is a handsome man, and although he has a somewhat unruly personality, he is not a bad person. And young people are full of youthful vigor, which is normal.

Now he has passed the examination and become a scholar, although he did not get the first place, but he has passed the examination after all. He will take the examination for a juren in the future. Besides, his father is now the prefect of a provincial capital, so he has a bright future.

If my daughter marries him, she might become a phoenix in the future.

Gao Ju had met Xu Hao several times before. Seeing Xu Hao's handsome appearance, she had long admired him in her heart. Unfortunately, Xu Hao had never looked at her straight in the eye.

This time, knowing that he had passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, she began to fantasize about becoming a scholar's wife. Gao Su of course knew what his daughter was thinking and thought this was a good opportunity.

Ever since Xu Mingchang was transferred from Heyang, he hadn't seen him again. Knowing that he would definitely come this time, he asked his wife and daughter to make preparations early. He watched County Magistrate Zhang leave and followed behind uninvited.

It was not the first time that the Zhang family had held a large banquet. Everyone had experience and was familiar with the process. Everyone divided the work and cooperated with each other, each taking their own positions.

Early in the morning, every household brought tables. The temporary kitchen that had been built earlier was not dismantled and was finally put to use again.

As for the people in the kitchen, it is still the same as before. The ingredients are placed in the kitchen and there is no need to arrange them. Everyone finds work to do on their own.
